The iconic black and white ‘Imagine’ mosaic pays tribute to John Lennon, singer, songwriter, musician and peace activist who was shot and killed while walking into his home at the Dakota Building, on December 8, 1980. The memorial is located in Strawberry Fields, a landscaped area in Central Park, just across from the Dakota Building. The area is named after the Beatles' song "Strawberry Fields Forever". Designated as a quiet zone in Central Park, an official plaque calls the site a "Garden of Peace." The memorial is often covered with flowers, candles in glasses, and other belongings left behind by Lennon fans. On his birthday and the anniversary of his death, people gather to sing songs and pay tribute.
